CALL FOR PAPERS
MeSSa 2016
3rd International Workshop on Measurability of Security in Software Architectures
http://www.vtt.fi/messa2016
Istanbul, Turkey, September 5-9, 2016
Co-located with
The 10th European Conference on Software Architecture (ECSA 2016)
http://ecsa2016.iku.edu.tr/#workshops/
TOPICS
Security-related incidents are increasing, and at the same time the society is based more and more on reliability of cyber-physical systems. Systematic approaches to measure security and to build security in are thus needed in order to build secure software systems and to offer security evidence for software architects, decision makers and end-users. Security measuring from software architectures is required to produce sufficient evidence of security level as early as in the design phase. Consequently, design-time security measuring supports “security by design” approach. In addition, software architectures have to support runtime security measuring to obtain up-to-date security information from online software systems. Runtime security measuring is exploited in situation-awareness and self-adaptive security, such as security of IoT in eHealth. Security metrics for adaptation should also support evaluation and validation of runtime security adaptation. The area of security metrics and security assurance metrics research is evolving, but still lacks widely accepted definitions of metrics and applicable measuring techniques for design-time and runtime security monitoring.
The workshop will provide a forum for dissemination, demonstration and discussion of original scientific and experimental results of security measurement topics. MeSSa 2015 solicits contributions on the following issues (but not limited to):
- Security, trust and privacy metrics
- Security assurance metrics
- Security, trust and privacy measurement systems and associated data gathering
- Security measuring from software architectures and measurability-increasing mechanisms
